Spare & fleet keysRegain Entry Into Your Fiat Ducato
A Fiat Ducato off the road is money — or a holiday — lost. The Ducato is Britain’s most common motorhome base as well as a workhorse panel van, so a lost, stolen or snapped key can strand a courier at the depot or a family at the campsite.
A dealer will want the Ducato recovered, an appointment days away, and a bill stacking the key, the coding and the transport — painful for a trade van, worse for a motorhome miles from home. A general locksmith cannot programme it either: the Ducato runs a Hitag2 immobiliser, so an uncoded key opens the door but never starts the engine. You need someone who knows the Sevel van key system.
Lock City is a mobile van locksmith who comes to your yard, depot, home or the campsite with the dealer-level software and correct blanks to cut and code a Ducato key on-site — no towing, no dealer wait. We also handle deadlock lockouts and fleet and spare keys. Call 07967 097 899, Mon–Fri 8am–5:30pm.
Fiat Ducato Keys: Types & What You Need
Knowing your Ducato — and whether it is a plain panel van or a motorhome conversion — tells us the exact blade, chip and software to bring:
Ducato X250 / X290 (2006–present)
- Blade: SIP22 blade (Fiat profile) on most vans; newer builds may use a high-security variant [verify against your VIN].
- Transponder: Philips/NXP Hitag2 (ID46, PCF7936/7946) — OBD-programmable at the roadside.
- Remote: two- or three-button fixed or flip remote; plain transponder key on base panel vans.
- All-keys-lost: the PIN is generally readable by OBD, so AKL is done on-site with no modules removed.
The Ducato as the UK’s favourite motorhome base
- Most common motorhome base in Britain: the Ducato cab underpins a huge share of coachbuilt and van-conversion motorhomes, so a “Ducato key” is very often a motorhome key job.
- Separate habitation locks: the habitation door, gas locker and garage typically use their own keys/locks — tell us what you need and we will bring the right blanks.
Sibling note: the Ducato is the Sevel Large van — mechanically the Peugeot Boxer and Citroën Relay, sharing the same blade-and-Hitag2 key system. If your base vehicle is badged Boxer or Relay, the key job is the same — we carry parts for all three.

Fiat Ducato Key Replacement — Your Questions Answered
Can you cut a key for my motorhome built on a Fiat Ducato base?
Yes — this is one of our most common jobs, because the Ducato is the UK’s most popular motorhome base. We cut and code the cab key on-site at your home, storage yard or the campsite. The habitation door, gas locker and garage usually have separate locks; tell us what you need and we will bring the right blanks.
How fast can you get my Ducato back on the road?
We prioritise vans and motorhomes because being stranded is lost income or a ruined trip. In most cases we cut and programme a key at your location in one visit, with no recovery to a dealer. See our van locksmith solutions.
My Ducato cranks but won’t start — is it the key?
It can be. A de-synced Hitag2 transponder or an immobiliser fault lets the van turn over but not fire, which is easily mistaken for an engine problem. We diagnose the immobiliser and re-code the key at the roadside.
Can you come to my depot to key a fleet of Ducatos?
Yes. We attend yards and depots to cut and programme spare or replacement keys across a fleet in one visit — the cheapest way to make sure no lost key strands a van. See our replacement van keys service.
